| Summary: | After an experiment goes wrong, three science prodigies from two different time periods meet in a strange, seemingly adandonded city, and burdened with a glitchy time machine, an android time cop hot on their trail, and some tangled temporal mechanics to unravel, they set out to save the Earth. 1891: Willa Marconi's life falls apart when her mentor at the University of Bologna unexpectedly dies. She loses her laboratory access and her stipend, but refuses to let anyone take her research away. While testing her prototype radio equipment, she detects a mysterious signal and pursues its origin. 2034: A cataclysmic event has rendered the Earth uninhabitable. Humankind lives inside of artificial worlds. Riley would do anything for Jaideep-- including building a time machine so they can travel back to the 19th century, prevent the destabilization of the planet, and rewrite history. Instead, Willa, Riley and Jaideep are stranded in a seemingly abandoned city with a glitchy time machine, a scary android time cop on their trail, and some tangled temporal mechanics to unravel. -- adapted from jacket |
